My parts arrived late, didn't have as much time as I would have liked. Only got the driver's side done. I am sore and aching all over. Work is going to suck tomorrow.
Enjoy some boring pictures...

Finished the other side today, truck is back on the ground. VERY unhappy, doesn't sit any lower despite taking 1/2 a coil out of the springs. I'm pooped, I'll have it aligned this week and go from there.

Durango ended up being a clogged oil filter. It had oil coking in it when I got it. I kept the oil changed. It tured to sludge and fell off and clogged the filter. Sea foamed it and go the nasty out. I got another batch in it with fresh oil and filter. I will change it after 150 miles.
But it had oil pressure every start last of the cold spell after sitting all night after the first flush and oil change.

Had the front end alignment done today, it settled some. But, it sits exactly the same height as my father's stock 2000 Sierra. And I have 1/2" shorter tires on the front of my truck.

Pulled the rear axle out of my truck today. Replaced the broken leaf spring on the passenger side. Cleaned up the frame rails and sprayed them with bedliner. Got the rear axle broken down. I also removed the ratty exhaust system and installed the cat back exhaust system off of the other truck. Busy day today, I'm going to be hurting tomorrow at work.

Went to Bowling Green to pick up another for the growing collection.
Last year we bought this house so that all the cars could be inside. Guess I need to build a bigger garage now... Can't wait to get this one on the road! We towed it home so that I could drop it off to be completely wrapped in Paint Protective Film before it sees the first mile of street time.
